Entomopathogenic fungi have great potential as biological control agents against insect pests. So they are being developed worldwide for the control of many pests of agricultural importance. But their effect on non-target insects, such as natural enemies has been a matter of great concern. Recently we came across an entomopathogen infecting a laboratory culture of Zygogramma bicolorata, a potential biocontol agent of noxious weed, Parthenium hysterophorus. The pathogen was isolated from the grubs and beetles and identified as Beauveria bassiana. In the present paper, the entomopathogen, B. bassiana is reported and described for the first time from the laboratory culture of Z. bicolorata.

Grzyby entomopatogeniczne mają duży potencjał jako czynniki biologicznego zwalczania szkodników owadów, co spowodowało, że zainteresowano się ich rozwojem, w celu zwalczania wielu ważnych szkodników w rolnictwie. Są one ich naturalnymi wrogami. Ostatnio wykryto entomopatogena infekującego laboratoryjną kulturę Zygogamma bicolorata, który jest potencjalnym czynnikiem biologicznego zwalczania szkodliwego chwastu Parthenium hysterophorus. Patogen ten został wyosobniony z larw chrząszczy i określony jako Beauveria bassiana. Artykuł jest pierwszym doniesieniem i pierwszym opisem Z. bicolorata z kultury laboratoryjnej.
